Important Added Info: Note that this still has been trimmed and it now measures 8" x 9 3/4" [20 x 25 cm]. Condition: fair. The left border was trimmed off, very slightly extending into the very edge of the image in one place. There are staple holes in the monster's neck and one pair in his hair, with two in the right background area, with pinholes around the edges. There is paper loss in the top right, caused by rough removal of a staple. Someone faintly wrote "The Duke" in the middle right in pencil, extending over a small portion of the forehead of the shadow. There is a pencil mark to the left of those words that is in the shadow and extends into the tip of Karloff's nose. There are some faint scratch marks in Karloff's cheek and neck. Of course, this still has really major defects, but it certainly is a wonderful still, and it would surely be worthwhile having it professionally restored. But bear these condition defects and the cost of restoration in mind before placing a bid on this still. Learn More about condition grades
